Zaurbek Baysangurov (born March 2, 1985) is a Russian boxer and the former IBO and WBO Light Middleweight Champion.

Amateur

Chechen junior middleweight Baysangurov is a two-times world amateur junior championship bronze medalist (U17 World Championships in 2001 and World Junior Championships 2002 in Cuba) and Russian amateur junior Champion.

Pro

He turned pro for German promoter Sauerland in 2004 at age 18. Hard hitting veteran Marco Antonio Rubio, 34-4-1 (30) put him on the deck in 2006 but was soundly outpointed.
